### Description
It's not clear to me what the point of caching phar contents is. In a world where opcache is
used, it shouldn't be necessary to cache the phar contents anyway, except perhaps the
occasional data file.
In addition, since different threads / processes don't share phar caches,
/tmp can
get very crowded with lots of files caching near-identical data.
I maintain a long-running application in which autoload time is not a concern, but the hogging of
tmp space is a problem for my users. There doesn't seem to be a way to stop ext-phar from
caching things read from phars.
